Pirating records even in the 1900’s. I have heard of the talk o phone, in one of my books on antique phonographs, by George F. Paul and Tim Fabrizio. Great video.

Nice informative video, thanks

The coin "flies through the air with the greatest of ease!"

This video is exactly what my adhd brain needed at 12:13 on a Tuesday

Another great video. I've always liked the coin-op phonographs.

I never knew Edison and Columbia had manufactured so many varieties of coin operated phonographs.

Beautiful Edison Opera you have a wonderful collection 😀 🇮🇪🍻

Haven't heard of this series before but very interested!

Another great video, thanks

Great production.

You have helped the phonograph community in many ways. Your series on the 5000 series in particular. This video is another example. I recently purchased one of these incredible phonographs and had it serviced. In this video, I was able to view the gears on both sides and confirm that they had been re-assembled correctly. Once again, thank you.

I had no idea Lambert made Concert cylinders. Great info, thanks for posting.

S.S. Kresge company was the "father" of Kmart! My father worked at an S.S. Kresge store in the 1950s, I worked at a Kmart in the 1970s and again in the 2010s. My mother worked for Sears, Roebuck and Company from the 1950s until the 1980s. It was years after my mother passed that Sears & Kmart merged, Linking all three historic names. Small world indeed.

Another great video.

Oreste Migliaccio was the composer of the excellent ragtime song ‘Gatling Gun Rag.’

Another great video!

Very nice!

It’s amazing all of the different accessories that were, available for phonographs of the time period.

Another informative video, thank you

That's fascinating; Thank you! I'm going to watch them all!

Those were some interesting finds!

I do not collect antique phonographs. I do own 1 though. It is an original 1897 Berliner Trademark. The phono is almost like new. The goldtone horn has a few dents but still pretty nice. I bought it at an estate auction in 1986. There were 1200 discs including 43 Berliners and 60 other 7" discs. Unfortunately, the rest of the records, were rather boring. Included was an original 1899 Berliner catalogue. Paid a whopping $400 for the whole works. The auctioneer described both the phono and 7" discs as "childrens" That helped keep the price down. LOL.

Very interesting, thanks.

Just a super video. Very well done!

Superb video! Thanks for creating and sharing.

Excellent!! Thank you for putting this video together..

This is the last prerecorded cylinder?

Another great video Shawn. Sure would like too see your coin-op phonograph collection.

Fascinating machine. Especially for the only surviving example.

Wow! You really put a lot of work into this video. Thanks for sharing!

Spectacular machine, and equally spectacular video -- I think the best you've done yet, and that's saying something, Great work!

Outstanding video, Shawn. What a machine!

Fantastic demonstration is this one of your Coin Class M in your collection beautiful cabinet 😀🎷👍

Outstanding 😮. What a cylinder record 👏 👌

Very cool!

Great video. I'm a period correct cabinet collector for my machines and have the last Salter cabinet you displayed both in Oak and Mahogany and the 75 peg early cabinet with the gap air space.

Some additional albeit slightly more obscure details relevant to this cylinder: It is a directly recorded cylinder recorded way back in 1910 - originally being released for sale in September 1910 as a four-minute wax Amberol. In 1927, Edison was occasionally filling out his monthly Blue Amberol offerings with the occasional earlier directly recorded cylinders recorded prior to the introduction of the Blue Amberol. Source material included pre-Blue Amberol recordings by performers/ensembles not longer available to Edison, which included Victor Herbert's Orchestra, Harry Lauder, Fisk University Jubilee Quartet, and Sousa's Band. Regarding this Sousa Band recording: this is a great example of the high quality, the higher level of sound fidelity of Edison's superior acoustical recording process - - vastly superior to any other recordings by any other company then available. [If only he had had access to the celluloid patents back in 1908: he was only lacking a durable cylinder material to blow away the competition]. By the time he finally gained access to the needed celluloid patents (circa 1912), Victor and Columbia had cornered the market with the leading popular and operatic stars of the period. Of course, it didn't help that Mr. Edison took it upon himself to identify recording talent,d criticizing the likes of Rachmaninoff with "He's a pounder". Recording quality control of early Edison discs involved Mrt. Edison as having to actually bite into the wood frame holding suspended a laboratory model disc player. At least he seems to to have liked my recordings. Yours trooly, Uncle Josh

Another great video! Thank you for sharing!

These are fun, Shawn. I have the Diamond Disc versions of these and transferred them a couple of years ago.

Interesting & informative, as always! but at 1:50, don't you mean "Gram-o-phone," and not "Graphophone"?
